Light inks are not classified as additional colours. for example Light cyan and cyan are actually 1 colour. Additional colours are violet, orange, green, etc.

seems as you've found the problem. You would need to call canon or your local dealer. you can buy replacement parts. usually you'd buy the assembly. unless you can track down the P/N for the stepper motor.

Nitrile gloves work for us.

This is with in the media ICC profile. not how you set up the file in this case. With this level of printer, you would have some sort of understanding on how colour works with media profiles etc. because everything you've listed will not affect how the printer puts it's colours down. Only...

It wont damage anything if the only difference is the inkset. The only thing that will chance is your colour output. simply, your colour will be less accurate than before. Not so simply. Different inks have different colour gamut. Each profile is catered to the way the inks print with ink...

Stay home & Stay warm!

100% agree. Onyx went a lot faster from 12 to 18. and even faster from 18 to 21. added features here and there. For example, X21 finally has Barbieri devices listed in their swatchbooks module. That's huge for us as you could only scan with Xrite devices.. we only have Barbieri devices But...

I'd be a bit worried about people running such old software though. if you're running Under x18. like x12 etc. it's time to upgrade.

UV is better for rigid substrates as an FYI. it does depends what you plan to print with it

Not for each job - no. What we do is I've build a pretty robust quoting calculator that factors in all our consumables, etc All you need to do to is enter the job size. qty. and media and it'll give you a price per sheet & est print time. It also tells me the profit per job, and consumable cost...

Long flush

Just to be sure. You did the ink restrictions, linearisation, ink limits? Before the icc profile?

I don’t think this is possible in an easy way. Because the “uncalibrated” printer has its own profile that was calibrated. The problem is that the profile thinks it’s printing the right colours but the printer isn’t. even if you get the old profile from the printer and do a conversion with...

As said, Light inks dont do anything for gamut. if anything they cost more to run.

did it print like that in the showroom?

It really depends on what type of canvas too. like a thick artist canvas, or more of a textile canvas, there's synthetic ones. I prefer the textile ones. that's just me though. Your best option would be to find your local media supplier and ask for a sample booklet, pick the ones you want to...

What's your PC Spec? Next time you send a roll, go to task manager and see what speeds you're sending at under your ethernet connection.

Yep!. but the upload to printer is real slow. but that's the way i like. that's not a to bad of a way. for us, the quickest and most simple way is the best.

Id' be replacing that ribbon cable. if you dont make contact, can cause the head not to work properly.

Yes, there's easier methods out there. Most will require a spectrophotometer like an X-rite i1pro. Ideally you want the printer calibrated first. Then your colours should be a lot closer already. From there, there's a few ways. You can either do your way again but it'll probably be easier...
